Lucky in Love

I'd like to thank Ryan's birthday went pretty well!  It was very low key, but Ryan likes low key.  I made him steak & fruit salad, and his strawberry angel food cake turned out pretty well.  There were parts of the cake that didn't cook completely, but we'll ignore that.

Happy Birthday lover!

I got him the new Samsung Galaxy S phone and he likes it so far!  He's never heard of a phone that has a camera, emails, AND gets lots of cool apps.  Welcome to 2011 my dear :) 

Earlier this week, I started getting very, very sad that I was missing home so much.  This is of course because I was just there for a week.  I had SO much fun seeing all my friends and family, and I did NOT want to leave my new baby niece.  Because I was feeling sad, I think Ryan used his man senses and thought that I was mad at him.  I told him I was feeling sad just because I was just there, but my sweet hubby wasn't okay with this.  I think he puts a lot of blame on himself for our move to KC, and I sometimes have to tell him that I chose to move here too, it's just harder for me because I'm a girl and that's what girls do :)

Anyway, I came home from work on Tuesday to a card, flowers, and a cute stuffed dog that I named Bubba. Not only did he do this for me, but he wasn't home when I got home because he was out picking up one of my FAVORITE meals.  Carrabba's.  Yum yum!

No clue why the lighting turned out like it did.

I'm so lucky to have a husband that is sensitive to my feelings, and does what he can to make it better.  I don't know how I got such a great guy, but I'm so thankful to be lucky in love! <3
